Question

20. A 10.0-L flask containing an unknown amount of He, 2.00 mole of Ar, and 3.00 mole of Ne has a total pressure of 24.5 atm at 25°C. How many moles of He are in the flask?

a. 5.00 mol b. 10.0 mol c. 114 mol d. 119 mol

21. A 10.0-L flask containing 1.00 mole of He, 2.00 mole of Ar, and 3.00 mole of Ne has a total pressure of 24.5 atm at 25°C. What is the partial pressure of Ne in the flask?

a. 4.08 atm b. 8.17 atm c. 12.3 atm d. 24.5 atm

22. What is the root-mean-square (average) speed of a neon atom at 27°C?

a. 5.78 m/s b. 19.3 m/s c. 183 m/s d. 609 m/s

24. Which property of an individual molecule is assumed to be zero in the kinetic-molecular theory?

a. Mass b. Volume c. Speed d. Kinetic Energy

Explanation / Answer

20.

PV = nRT

n = PV/(RT) = 24.5*10/(0.082*(295)) = 10.1281 mol

total mol = 10.1281 = 2 Ar + 3 Ne + He

He = 10.1281 -5 = 5.1281 mol of He
